Clearly this study is biased."Neither the existence nor the size of race differences in IQ are a matter of dispute, only their cause," write the authors. The Black-White difference has been found consistently from the time of the massive World War I Army testing of 90 years ago to a massive study of over 6 million corporate, military, and higher-education test-takers in 2001. "Race differences show up by 3 years of age, even after matching on maternal education and other variables," said Rushton. "Therefore they cannot be due to poor education since this has not yet begun to exert an effect. That's why Jensen and I looked at the genetic hypothesis in detail. We examined 10 categories of evidence." ... Racial Admixture Studies. Black children with lighter skin, for example, average higher IQ scores. In South Africa, the IQ of the mixed-race "Colored" population averages 85, intermediate to the African 70 and White 100. www.news-medical.net/news/2005/04/26/9530.aspx

It is racist to wonder if there are differences in IQ between races. In fact, it is racist to think that there are different races.

Dan Roodt requests information on low IQ of Afrikaners from University of Johannesburg Dear Prof. Ryan, We publish a website praag.co.za and Sunday a week ago carried a column with critical remarks on Western feminism which prompted Dr. Piet Croucamp whom I believe to be a lecturer in your faculty, to lay charges of hate speech against the author, who has since resigned her position at the University of Pretoria. The column also contained a sentence on the phenomenon of baby rapes in South Africa which was ascribed to cultural influence, which provided the element of hate speech, according to Dr. Croucamp. However, in his various public pronouncements, on TV and in the press, as well as online, Dr. Croucamp has stated that "conservative Afrikaners are less intelligent" than other people. He seems to hold the view that political conservatism, patriotism, nationalism and related phenomena are related to low intelligence or correlates with a low IQ in such individuals. ...
